Detox your Diet: Watch Food Inc

I found out from April at Durham Organics's that the documentary Food, Inc. was shown on CBC's The Passionate Eye and is available to watch for free in full length on their site.

This is a must-watch documentary that will give you (and definitely gave me) insights on where our food comes from, how it is processed and how we can make healthier, more ethical food choices for our families, our communities and the planet.

 I found the last few frames of Food, Inc. especially inspiring, I thought I would share them with you...
"You can vote to change (our food system). Three times a day.
Buy from companies that treat workers, animals, and the environment with respect.
When you go to the supermarket,
            Choose foods that are in season.
            Buy foods that are organic.
            Know what's in your fod.
            Read labels.
Know what you Buy.

The average meal travels 1500 miles from the farm to the supermarket.
            Buy foods that are grown locally.
            Shop at farmer's markets.

Cook a meal with your family and eat together.

Everyone has a right to healthy food.
            Ask your school board to provide health school lunches.

If you say grace, ask for food that will keep us, and the planet healthy.

You can change the world with every bite."
